Gluon Gun sprial effects are so 1998.

The railgun has them if you really want them


===============

New File Front link on the front page!

Kelly, did you model/texture/code/ and animate that photon cannon all by yourself? amazing work...

The credit goes to Kaboodles, Captain Xavious and I for the coding.

I designed the animated skin from Xav's template shown on the last page and put in some cool sounds. We worked together as a team to make this gun work like it does now.

Nice! Sounds like a great team!

Yeah, I'd say we make a pretty good team.

Meet the H-V PC's big brother.

His name is E-V Hyper Plasma Cannon 9000, but you can just call him BFG.[br][img width=800 height=500]../../files/public/1219608947_105_FT51480_shot00034_.jpg[/img][br][br][img width=800 height=500]../../files/public/1219608947_105_FT51480_shot00033_.jpg[/img][br]

AWWW YEAH BABAY!

Seconded.

Primary fire shoots a giant killer plasma ball of death while secondary fire shoots super-powered versions of the standard HVPC secondary bolts.

This superweapon variant of the original is better than it in every way.


What do you guys think of it?

I won't know until a release comes.

It looks a little bland, but should be a fun toy to play with!

A superweapon variant of a superweapon?
Hell Yeah!!!

Bland?

Why you slithering worm HOW DARE YOU!

I mean... It looks almost like the OTHER Plasma Cannon, but it should be fun to play with. Given that it IS a BFG in ballistic, two win's in one.

We'll see what the future unfolds. Maybe all the weapons in Sarge's pack will in the end use custom models.

Sweet! The Big F***ing Gun!

MOR NEW GUNZ, YAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY HAPPY BETA!!!!

Perhaps maybe a little bit unbalanced (Fighting with a HV-PC against that BFG)?

It's a super-superweapon... Of course it's unbalanced!

It could create more heat each time you fire it.

I want to know about the minigun.

Imbalance is unavoidable in such circumstances. Pretty much all FPS games have weapons of varying strength and efficiency. If this weapon is clearly more powerful than the little brother, the guy carrying the weaker weapon just needs to be more skilled. Lots of firepower does little when it mostly hits geometry.

There's also a difference in ammo consumption.

The BFG can only fire 5 blasts on a full clip while the HVPC can fire 50.
The rare HVPC power cells are used up quickly by the powerful Nexron plasma weapons.


Anyway, here's an action shot of the photon beam function of the HMC.

Ooh.. Pretty.

For E-V PC...

1: Shorter range.

2: Two times more rising heat.

The range is effectively cut down quite a bit from the H-V PlasCannon. The shots travel much slower and has a much slower fire rate. I personally prefer the H-V PlasCannon over the BFG because its much more versitile, but its still hard to beat the satisfaction of clearing out a room with the BFG.

Whats up with the magnetic plasma cannon?
Haven't heard about that one.

The magnetic cannon is the simple Plasma cannon.
correct me if i'm wrong...

Yup, the full name of the HVPC is High Voltage Magnetic Plasma Cannon [Mark 5] - Codename 'Shock & Awe' -.

It's even longer than the SMAT's, which is called the Flak 16 Single Man Anti-Tank/Anti-Air Recoilless Rifle.

Wow.

I just gave my own codenames for easier remembering

AH104- Boomer

GRSXX- Doctor

M781- Rain

A73E: Orange Plasma

M30A2: Hounder

SMAT/AA- Flak Rocket

HVPC- Cannon

That's mine

AND I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE MINIGUN.

Minigun? What's a minigun?

I don't know any XMB-500 Personal Miniguns.

Suggestion:
when you use the regular Blue skrith rifle, and you stab a wall, you can see some blue line thingys(don't know the right word) from it. maybe the A73-E could have orange lines?

Do tell more.
